Alice Cooper's “Muscle of Love” on 4.0 Quad SACD
Audio Fidelity To Release Alice
Cooper's “Muscle of Love” On 4.0 Quad SACD
“Alice returns to a pure rock
sound...one of his most revered albums ever.”
Alice Cooper fans rejoice! Marshall Blonstein's Audio Fidelity will be releasing the final Alice Cooper group album on 4.0 Quad SACD. Muscle of Love is the seventh studio album by Alice Cooper and it was the last album to feature the entire original band, and it was a true grand finale at that. Cooper stated in an interview at the time that the album marked a return to fundamentals. “It's not complicated in any sense...It's very basic rock & roll throughout.”
The two best-known tracks are undoubtedly the Top 20 anthem “Teenage Lament '74,” which features none other than Liza Minnelli, Ronnie Spector, Labelle and the Pointer Sisters on backing vocals, and the rollicking title track. But other tracks are just as good - the Led Zep-stomping opener, “Big Apple Dreamin' (Hippo),” the gentle “Hard Hearted Alice” (a precursor to Cooper's future ballad-oriented direction), the raging “Working Up a Sweat,” and “Man with the Golden Gun.”
“One of the best albums of the
genre...a hard rock classic!”

URIAH HEEP Announces the Release of Obscure Re-Recordings Anthology, Now Re-Branded TOTALLY DRIVEN - OUT NOW!
Legendary band URIAH HEEP was formed in 1969 and still actively tours
the world today. This release re-brands a previously released obscure
re-recordings anthology as TOTALLY DRIVEN. The album features 27
re-recordings made in 2001 including the HITS Lady in Black, July
Morning and Easy Livin’. This album features the band’s longest running line-up of MICK BOX, LEE KERSLAKE, PHIL LANZON, BERNIE SHAW and the late TREVOR BOLDER. This release is the first on the band’s own URIAH HEEP RECORDS.
Of the release, Mick Box said “The 'Totally Driven' recordings were made while we were in preparation for the 'Acoustically Driven' and 'Electrically Driven' concerts. Previously these 2001 recordings were released under the confusing name 'Remasters', but that title went out of print very quickly. This re-release has had the band’s full input, including in its re-branding as 'Totally Driven' and will be the very first release on our own Uriah Heep Records. ‘Appy Days!”
Totally Driven is housed in a 6 panel digi-pack with new custom artwork by Igor Morski.
